William Ellis (c.1700?1758), agriculturist and writer. After a short period in the brewing industry, Ellis bought Church Farm at Little Gaddesden, near Hemel Hamstead, Hertfordshire, were he combined the practice of farming with his passion for writing on the subject. His writings were far more successful than his farming activities and his early books were very well received and "farmers in all parts of the country asked him to visit and report on their farms. He travelled over the country giving advice and observing different farming methods... Many farmers visited Ellis's farm at Little Gaddesden, but they found that he did not practise what he advocated in print, that his implements were old-fashioned, and that his land was neglected and in bad condition." (ODNB). Provenance: Small neat ink stamp of the Lawes Agricultural Library to the title of the first 2 volumes. Fussell II, p. 7; Perkins 561 (the London edition of 1744); Aslin, p.43.

The book treats of improvements in general of enclosing meadows and pastures and of watering and draining them of clovers vetches spurry Wiltshire long-grass probably that of the meadows of Salisbury hemp flax rape turnips etc. A Persian wheel was made by his direction in Wiltshire in 1665 that carried water in good quantity above twenty feet high for watering meadows and another near Godalming in Surrey. Sowing clover and other seeds preserved the cattle in the fatal winter of 1673 in the southern parts of England; whereas in the western and northern through defect of hay and pasture the greater part of their cattle perished. Hops enough were not planted but we imported them from the Netherlands of a quality not so good as our own. The authors he chiefly quotes are Weston Hartlib and Blith. Worlidge's system of husbandry collected information published during the period of the Commonwealth. The work went through a number of editions and was important for many years. . Second edition.
